So, I am able to mount DVDs but cannot mount CDs. Evidently, this is problamatic.
Here is my fstab.
#
# /etc/fstab: static file system information
#
# <file system> <dir> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>
devpts /dev/pts devpts defaults 0 0
shm /dev/shm tmpfs nodev,nosuid 0 0
/dev/cdrom /mnt/cd auto ro,user,noatime 0 0
/dev/dvd /mnt/dvd auto ro,user,noatime 0 0
#/dev/fd0 /media/fl auto user,noauto 0 0
/dev/sda1 /boot ext2 defaults 0 1
/dev/sda2 swap swap defaults 0 0
/dev/sda3 / ext3 defaults,noatime 0 1
/dev/sda4 /home ext3 defaults,noatime 0 1
Additionally --
# ls /mnt
cd dvd
(The directories I'm trying to mount to do exist. )
This might also be helpful.
# mount -a
mount: you must specify the filesystem type
mount: you must specify the filesystem type
If I didn't mention something necessary please let me know -- I'm not completely sure what I should post.
Thanks.

*If you're talking 'bout Audio CDs, then you can't normally mount them, since they don't have a filesystem on them.
For Audio CDs, you have these options:
1) Play it directly with your favorite music player. Mplayer and VLC also support CD playback.
2) Rip the Tracks using one of the various rippers. Ex. rubyripper is such a tool based on cdparanoia. It comes with both CLI and GTK2 interfaces. The gui script (/usr/bin/rrip_gui) from the repos contains a typo at line 594, you can just edit it to
if @cd.md.varArtists.empty? ; @varCheckbox.active = false end
3) "Mount" the CD using cddfs, a tool that enables you to mount Audio CDs through FUSE. It's in AUR. Once installed, read /usr/share/doc/cddfs/README for instructions.

Ah, thanks. It was an audio CD -- didn't realize that.
